God appeared to Solomon that night and said to him, “Ask! What should I give you?”

Solomon said to God, “You have shown great covenant faithfulness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
9 O Pakai Pathen lungset tah in kapa David toh nakitepna koijinginlang Mihem hijat chunga hin lengin neipan sahtai.
Now, Yahweh God, let your promise to David my father be carried out, for you have made me king over a people as numerous as the dust of the earth.
10 Mipi hijat chunga kituptah a kalam kai thei’a namite chunga vai kahom themtheina dingin chih na le hetna neipen,
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, so that I may lead this people, for who can judge your people, who are so many in number?”

God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and because you have not asked for riches, wealth, or honor, nor for the life of those who hate you, nor for long life for yourself, but you have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you might rule my people, over whom I have made you king, and this is what I will do.

I will now give you wisdom and knowledge. I will also give you riches, wealth, and honor, as none of the kings had before you, and none after you will have.”

So Solomon came to Jerusalem from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting; he reigned over Israel.
